Michael's First Place Ribbon
Monday, June 14, 2010
Michael's boat, the Millenium Falcon won the most creative boat at the Milk Carton Boat Race.
He only found out today because he didn't want to stay to the end of the race for the award ceremony. I will update blog when I know what he won and how he feels about it.

More pictures from the Race
Everyone enjoyed the race, even the two people in the very cold water of the Nanaimo River. The boats showed a wonderful diversity of imagination and ideas - eg the Tim Hortons Boat. This is the third year Michael has raced and the third year it has rained on race day. Nobody noticed. As always we went to lunch after and then did a whole bunch of shopping. Nothing is left on our "Nanaimo List" for now.
Michael at the 2010 Milk Carton Race in Nanaimo
Michael had a blast. He was very proud of his millennium falcon boat and showed it to everyone who pointed a camera at it. He mingled with the crowd (well sort of) and enjoyed the race. He lost his heat but was very pleased with the whole experience especially as this year his boat didn't sink and he could take it home.

Tessa's New York
Tessa really enjoyed the Garment District, Grand Central Station, Central Park and our hotel room (perhaps not the air conditioner noise - it was in the 90's with 90% humidity all week).
Michael's Highlights of the New York Visit
Michael enjoyed the Rockefeller Centre, Toys R Us, FAO Schwartz, M&M world, Hershey's, Mary Poppins and of course the food.

The Cousins after Evan's Bar Mitzvah part II
We all had a great time at the BarMitzvah and then retired to the Marriott and talked a blue streak. Looked at old pictures of the family and even after all that food went off to get Pizza for supper!
